Re: libglademm and signal autoconnect

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

I see nothing there that suggests that you have found a way to correctly
connect any slot (with any return type or parameter types) to a signal
based on just the name.

All you are doing is storing specific sigc::slot instances in a std::map
via the sigc::slot base class, and getting that specific slot types back
again from your get_slot() via dynamic_cast<>. Of course the application
code needs to specify the get_slot()<> template type (via
get_widget()<>) so that the dynamic_cast<> can succeed.

If you can really make this automatic rather than just rearranging the
syntax of a normal signal connection, I'd be happy to be proved wrong. I
suggest that you use bugzilla.
